There is no way we take Fairley #1 overall. There are three factors that have determined this:

1 - He's a defensive tackle with average size for his skill.

2 - He's got character issues

3 - We have too many needs not to cash in on the teams that DO want Fairley at #1 overall. There are going to be teams lining up to draft him under the new CBA and we will get a good deal to trade that pick and address more than one need with a player that might improve the defense...but won't change the team as a whole.

At least those are reputable sources, and not just fans writing for a blog. They're such football insiders that one also predicted we'd go to a 3-4, "as expected."

Using Bleacher Report to argue a point is about as smart as citing Wikipedia in an honor's thesis.

I can not really believe that someone really looked to see who came from what highschool. Highschool and NFL are soo different. Russell is able get away with being 3 times as gifted than anyone else. He can throw a 65 yrd pass from his knees. (saw it on youtube.) In the NFL it doesnt work like that. Im just saying. haha The funny thing is the little time Russel Played during his first season was far above Jimmy Clausen. Not that I like Russell or Dont like Jimmy. Its just a fact. And no one can say that Russell had a team. Please post things that people really want too know.

They aren't sources.

Go find any reference to it from a proper draft website rather than random peoples own blogs. On one of those the guy even says 'I havent got time to go out and watch all these players, so heres people who do'

That said I think there are enough questions being asked that could inevitably make us look elsewhere.

Ignorance :eek:

Actually look at his first season, he WAS worse that Jimmy. Now let's actually wait and see if their 2nd season's compare.

      DJ Moore. The quitting WR

      By fieryprophet · Posted

      This play was never designed to go to either DJ or Odunze. The primary read is Burden who is stymied early, with the outlet being Kmet if Caleb doesn't like the option for Burden. Given the situation it's pretty obvious the simple play is to take the free yards with Kmet, or if you want to be aggressive just wait a beat longer for Burden to uncover on his double move. If Moore was ever going to be a viable target in this play then Caleb should have started out reading Odunze to hold the safety in the middle and then coming to Moore, but because he started the snap staring down the right and then came back to the middle late it made it where the safety's leverage remained to the outside of Moore, so he would never have imagined that pass actually being thrown to him in that situation. Realistically DJ's best option in that context is to just occupy the safety to leave a hole open for Caleb to get it to Burden, which is probably why he throttles down vs carrying the safety across.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By panfanman · Posted

      Even with Sonny Styles still on the board I thought it's a no brainer to address the Oline after Icky's injury.  And how can you pass up Fano at 19 given our situation. Then the rest of the draft just kind of made sense with maybe the exception of Klubnik.  But if Canales can fix him and Young goes down. . .I think it's a solid pick. What do you think of this draft?
